Nestled at the end of a tranquil, highly coveted Eastside street in Santa Cruz, this light-filled retreat offers unparalleled privacy and sophistication. An exquisite blend of serenity and scale, the residence boasts soaring vaulted ceilings, newly refinished hardwood floors, and an abundance of windows that frame lush, treetop views and bathe the interior in natural light. The gracious formal entry flows into an expansive great room centered by a gas-burning fireplace, with seamless transitions to a formal dining area and the private rear grounds. Thoughtfully appointed on the main level: powder room, oversized pantry with storage cabinets and shelving, laundry suite, access to the two-car garage, and a private side yard. Upstairs, ascend to the primary suite - a treetop sanctuary featuring a generous walk-in closet and spa-inspired bath with soaking tub and natural stone finishes. Two additional well-appointed bedrooms share a lovely hall bath with travertine tile and shower-over-tub. An oversized lot in one of Santa Cruz's most desirable enclaves, moments to downtown via the footbridge, top-rated restaurants, schools, and commuter routes. An exceptional opportunity - build an ADU, sports court, or garden oasis. A rare offering, hurry before its gone. Welcome home!
